I'm sure this has probably been covered a number of times, but the search function isn't working today. Probably a problem with my laptop. Anyways, is there anyway to add the factory GM remote start to my LS that wasn't originally equipped with it?

 

Was this a rental? I though all auto's had the remote start.

 

If yours is a manual like mine, you cannot add it. It is a safety thing with the sticks. Mine doesn't have it either.

 

I have a 08 LT1 Automatic that was apparently a rental since it doesn't have the "AP3" code in the glove box. I have been wondering about the auto start installation as well and haven't been able to find any how to's. Mabey someone here knows.

 

Sorry GM does not offer an upgrade kit.

 

Mine's an auto and I knew about most people not being able to add a remote start on a manual. Goin by what my dealer said, it wasn't a rental. Any way to tell if it was or not?

 

carfax will show if it was a rental. Also does it have the remote start AP3 code in the list in the clove box

 

Thanks. Mine wasn't a rental then... I didn't think any of the LS came with remote start...

 

I use the remote start several times a week on my LS.

Anyways, the Clifford alarm system I put on my pickup 12 years ago had remote start included. Don't know if more modern cars would be as easy for an aftermarket solution?

A quick check at Car Toys has a few GM remote start modules/systems for sale...

Thats what I was looking for. I was wanting to know if I could get the module and key fobs and have the dealer reprogram mine to accept it
